Frond at a Red Velvet Pool

Feel free to use this as desktop wallpaper. It's 1600x1200 but can be reduced in size.
I made it with one of my Alpharetta gradients, found here:

In Photoshop CS5.1 I put down the gradient and then applied Filter Forge's "Stagerd Swirl". What I was aiming for, and I think I achieved, is a Post-Minimalist work, something that takes off from Minimalism with a greater interest in texture (the red, slightly velvetized with shadow) and a touch of form (a hint of a frond and a pool).
